Music
Underground
is buried
one grand sonata,
unaware
the earth
will play it
on the day
some miner's pick
or water-seeking bit
or unattended phrase
frees it
from the rock.
Richard Hacken
(as suggested to him by Novalis, a German Romantic Poet):
Schläft ein Lied in allen Dingen,
Die da träumen fort und fort.
Und die Welt hebt an zu singen,
Triffst Du nur das Zauberwort.
